[MRCA] M&S Net

Gents:

 

     Like Al, I've recently been concerned about my station's antennas and
receivers.  To paraphrase Sgt Shultz: "I hear nothing. NOTHING!"  I'm glad
I'm not the only one among us who is bored with HF at the moment.

Hi Ray,

I'm pretty sure it's a sunspot issue.  (lack thereof)  There are lots of
times, these days, when I turn on an HF receiver, and wonder if I have an
antenna connected.  Take a look HERE

I wonder if I'm going to live to see good conditions again.  Nothing works
like it used to. :-)

VY 73,
Al

No love today with the Moose & Squirrel Net, don't know why but the last
week or so just not copying net control at all, hear others weekly but
beyond that no joy.

Think I may have issues with the antenna at home and may need to do some
replacement of down leads due to water in coax.
